“The RSU Fine Arts Films series seeks to bring in interesting films that have a high artistic merit” says Dr. Hugh Foley, RSU professor and one of the Fine Arts Film organizers. “I choose films for the series by being aware of new and important movies, as well by talking with colleagues and students about what they think might be a good fit for campus.” Be sure to witness this instant classic, February 13th at 7pm in the Will Rogers Auditorium.

The RSU Fine Arts Film Series has presented an eclectic group of films including Leaves of Grass, 3 Idiots, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and even Katy Perry: Part of Me.
